mobile phones in niederau

Hi Jan

That would be great to meet up. Look forward to it. Hubby is on 3 so we will be able to check more or less straight away if we are charged for any calls to home or from our 3 to 3 mobiles.

Yes Bandit that rings a bell = 3 like home. he said we wouldnt be charged any extra and it would just be like using our mobile in the uk. will be great if it works. I get free video calls to other 3 users so might buy my parents a 3 sim card so they can receive me up a mountain on the slopes lol :wink:

Karen, take a look at the tariff conditions when you get chance. I think you have to set up the overseas bit before you go )

Jan, your analysis of the lift queue day process was good, it's how we operate during the day. However, I disagree with you when you say that predicting queues is not productive. There is a method/direction selection of getting through the Niederau gondola queue that is much quicker than the alternatives. Of course, I am not going to say what that is!

It is not possible to use this method in America, because there is queueing lines process, a bit like cars moving alternately. Europe, however, is more of a free-for-all.

My observations are that queues move in certain ways, and people interact with them differently. If you are using a lift queue on a repeat basis, when you enter the queue, observe the people at the bottom. Then choose left, right or centre. As you near the head of the queue, check where those other people are, behind, level, or ahead?

Next time you use the lift, go to the previous quicker line element, and check. After four runs, you should have the theory checked out.

In most cases, either the extreme left, or the extreme right will be a minimum of 25% quicker than the centre.

As Tony-H would say ~ Fact.

Re slope communication, whatever happened to yodelling? It should reach anyone within 300/400 metres.

Course it does take a bit of practise....

I looked up yodelling at my local college but unfortunately the course was fully booked so I guess I will have to use modern technology, shame that, i had my leiderhosen at the ready too. lol :wink:
